MEET RIKI,
THERATAINMENT VISIONARY & CHANGE CATALYST
Known by her family and childhood friends as “odd” and free-spirited, Riki Yvette Westmoreland has always lived life on her own terms—adapting, imagining, and rising in the face of hardship. From surviving foster care, adult abuse, sexual assault, and suicidal depression, she found unexpected empowerment through creativity. As a child, she escaped into imaginative worlds, crafting stories and characters that would become her quiet, inner therapy. What started as private survival became the foundation of her life’s calling—and years later, would impact millions.
Riki is a multi-award-winning independent actress and understated trailblazer whose evocative acting has moved audiences across the globe. With over 100 roles spanning film, stage, and online work, she earned recognition for her deep emotional range and chameleon-like adaptability. Her breakout came as the original lead actress with then-unknown inspirational series Dhar Mann, where her performances helped define the show’s emotional core. Alongside the late, gifted Carl Judie, Riki’s raw authenticity and heart-centered acting left an indelible mark on a now-billions-viewed legacy.
After four years with the series, Riki began building intentionally into her lifelong dream. A polymath, spiritualist, and self-taught innovator, her interests range from transpersonal psychology and quantum physics to computer science, software engineering, and machine learning. She fused these passions to create Riki’s World, LLC – Home of Butterfly Therætainment™: a character-led, transformational storytelling platform rooted in lived experience and designed to empower the human spirit.
​
With over a decade in film, theater, and digital storytelling, Riki’s work redefines what entertainment can be. Through advocacy, self-discovery, and immersive performance, she merges art with purpose—igniting audiences from all walks of life. She is the DNA of Riki’s World, reshaping how we experience stories, healing, and hope in a rapidly changing world.
